Warning: There is a strong mistake in this page I will try to correct. GLAST/EAAT1 glutamate transporter (expressed in astrocytes) is NOT the same protein as SLC25A12/glutamate-aspartate mitochondrial exchanger!!

In human: GLAST gene is located on chromosome 5p13, on 109.85kb and is composed of 10 exons. SLC25A12 gene is located on chromosome 2q24-q13, on 81.68kb and is composed of 18 exons.

THIS MAY BE VERY CONFUSING!!!
